Cesar bags PH’s first medal at Dakar Youth Olympics

NAOMI Marjorie Cesar zoomed to a women’s 800-meter silver medal finish at the Dakar 4th Youth Olympic Games Monday afternoon in Senegal, early Tuesday in Manila. The 17-year-old Cesar clocked 2:09.34 to give the Philippines its first medal in a two-week sports spectacle, which will end on Friday. Cesar finished behind gold medalist Netsanet Selemon of Ethiopia, who topped the competition with a personal best of 2:04.43. Khadija Elmostaqim of Morocco settled for the bronze medal with 2:10.05. Running fourth in lane 5, Cesar said she turned it on in the final 100 m, where she went from fourth to second. “I was kind of waiting to turn it on in the end and go, and just tell myself that when I started, no one can catch me and I can catch whatever I set my sights on, so I trusted in myself,” she said. “I told myself that I worked so hard for this, so I’m not gonna go home in fourth,” added Cesar, younger sister of Filipinas national women’s football team member Malea. Naomi, who won a gold medal at the 2025 Southeast Asian Games like her sister Malea with the Filipinas, said winning a medal at the Youth Olympics felt surreal. “It still doesn’t feel real. When I crossed the line, I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I just medaled at the Youth Olympics.’ It’s just so unreal, and I’m so happy and I’m so proud of myself.” Naomi said her Youth Olympics silver medal is just the beginning of something big like potentially making it to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. “Hopefully [I could qualify], but I haven’t really looked that far ahead but it’s on the table. My goal is to keep representing the Philippines and make everyone proud,” she said. As she chases her Olympic dream, Naomi encouraged her fellow dreamers to believe in themselves. “Just keep believing in yourself and chase your dreams, and don’t listen to anyone who said you can’t because you’re the only one who can tell yourself that so don’t tell yourself that.”

Alas apologizes for behavior in UAAP game

ATENEO de Manila University Blue Eagles head coach Louie Alas on Tuesday apologized for his behavior at the conclusion of last Saturday’s University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) game against the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons. Alas was involved in a heated confrontation at the end of Saturday’s Blue Eagles 82-74 loss against the Maroons. He was suspended for two UAAP games as a result. “Regardless of the circumstances, my actions were inappropriate. I should have exercised greater restraint and better judgment. I take full responsibility for my conduct and accept the consequences,” Alas said in a statement posted on the Ateneo website. “I understand the disappointment my actions have caused, particularly among those who expect everyone representing Ateneo to uphold the highest standards of sportsmanship, respect and self-discipline. These are expectations I share and deeply respect,” he added. Ateneo will next play the Adamson University Soaring Falcons on Wednesday. ARIC JOHN SY CUA

Gilas sets formidable frontcourt for FIBA tilt

Gilas sets formidable frontcourt for FIBA tilt

IF plans don’t miscarry, Gilas Pilipinas expects a loaded front court for the fifth window of the FIBA World Cup 2027 Asian Qualifiers. Coach Tim Cone is keeping his fingers crossed that no injury bug will hit big men led by Kai Sotto, Quentin Millora-Brown, AJ Edu and Mike Phillips, as all four players are expected to be available for the November window. “Yes, barring any injury between now and then,” Cone said, when asked by The Manila Times about the availability of the four big men. The 7-3 Sotto has returned to action for his Japan B.League team Altira Chiba after missing seven games due to a knee issue. He played the first four games for the season, before being held back due to the injury. The Filipino big man has played in the team’s last two games, averaging six points and five rebounds in 17 minutes of play. Sotto’s size, coupled by the presence of QMB, who currently plays for the Nagoya Diamond Dolphins, along with Phillips (Kyoto Hannaryz) and Edu (Gunma Crane Thunders), will give Cone the luxury of a stratospheric frontline heading to the penultimate window of the FIBA Asian Qualifiers. Cone recently said Gilas will be leaving for Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on Nov. 21, with the team, while Bennie Boatwright, the team’s new naturalized player, will follow on Nov. 23. The PBA is scheduled to halt the playoffs for the Season 50 Governors’ Cup after Tuesday’s sudden death Game 5 of the quarterfinal series between San Miguel Beer and Ginebra to give way to Gilas’ FIBA tournament. Gilas has less than a week to prepare before plunging to action on Nov. 27 against Syria, followed by Iran on Nov. 30 in Seremban, an hour’s drive from Kuala Lumpur.

Tigers growl for Final Four push

Tigers growl for Final Four push

LOOKING to stay in the thick of the UAAP Season 89 men’s basketball Final Four spot hunt, the University of Santo Tomas (UST) faces University of the East (UE) at the Araneta Coliseum on Wednesday. The fifth-running Growling Tigers take on the already-eliminated yet dangerous Red Warriors at 2:30 p.m. While the 5-6 UST snapped its three-game skid to boost its Final Four bid with an 86-85 win over Far Eastern University (FEU) last Sunday, repeating against the cellar-dwelling 1-10, UE doesn’t look easy to pull off. The Red Warriors finally took their first win of the season last Saturday, ending a 30-game skid dating back to Season 87 with a 53-47 win against the Adamson Soaring Falcons. Facing a loose UE side that just came off its first win in two years to begin its three-game semis push, the Pido Jarencio-mentored UST knows it will face a tough challenge. “If you look at our practices, they became harder. They became more intense. They became more focused more than anything, and that’s the spirit that we want to continue,” said Growling Tigers assistant coach Peter Martin. “Even if we win the last three games, we’re not assured of a Final Four spot yet. We just want to finish well, one game at a time. We know that UE already has won, so that’s actually terrifying.” Firing 23 points last timeout, Amiel Acido looks to lead the charge anew for the Growling Tigers and sweep their elimination round series against the Paolo Hubalde-coached Red Warriors. Opposite Acido as well as Landyn Jumawan and Mark Llemit is Toper Lagat, whose offensive exploits finally translated to a UE victory last Saturday. Lagat punched 14 points, four rebounds and two steals against Adamson, while also drawing help from Mo Tañedo and JM Edoukou, who added 14 and 13 points, respectively. “I think they started to believe in what they can do,” said Hubalde. “On top of that, they’re starting to believe in the system. I told them that as long as you give everything on the court, basketball will love us back.” Tied with the Growling Tigers in fifth place with a 5-6 slate, the Ateneo de Manila Blue Eagles are likewise making their final push for a Final Four spot. Ateneo takes on the seventh-running, 4-7, and desperate Adamson side, which is essentially on the brink of elimination at 5 p.m. The Blue Eagles are coming off a 74-82 loss to the top seed and 9-2 UP Fighting Maroons last Saturday, while the Soaring Falcons fell victim to the Red Warriors to suffer their fourth straight defeat.

Anton wins in Malaysia, takes Formula Trophy lead

Anton wins in Malaysia, takes Formula Trophy lead

BAGUIO CITY — Filipino racing driver Iñigo Anton bounced back from a disappointing season opener to capture a commanding victory in the Formula Trophy Malaysia at the Petronas Sepang International Circuit, Malaysia, over the weekend. He also seized the lead for the overall championship after two rounds. The 21-year-old Anton dominated the weekend races, topping the practice sessions, claiming pole position in the qualifying, winning race 1 on Saturday and recording the fastest lap as he outpaced a competitive international field featuring drivers backed by prominent European racing academies. Driving for AXLE Sports, managed by former Formula One driver Alex Yoong, Anton clocked 30 minutes and 44.529 seconds to rule the 14-lap opening race on Saturday, finishing ahead of Britain’s Timo Jüngling of Xcel Motorsport and AXLE teammate Jaime Ambrose. Anton finished outside the podium in race 2 but recovered with a second-place finish in race 3 on Sunday. Germany’s Jesse Phillips of LN4 Fusion topped race 2, followed by China’s Chen Sicong and the Netherlands’ Rafael Vaessen. Jüngling, meanwhile, ruled race 3 in 31:24.161, with Anton taking second place ahead of Ambrose. Anton’s performance in Malaysia earned the lone Filipino driver on the grid enough points to move on top of the championship standings heading into the season finale. Anton faced stiff competition from drivers associated with international racing programs, including Phillips, a European karting champion, and Oleksandr Bondarev of the Williams Racing Junior Academy. Both compete for LN4 Fusion, a racing outfit co-founded by Formula One race winner Lando Norris. The Filipino driver was coached during the Malaysian round by Alister Yoong, son of AXLE Sports team manager Alex Yoong, whose guidance and race strategy helped Anton deliver a strong performance. “After a really disappointing round 1, we knew we had to come back with a vengeance,” Anton said, crediting his coach and the entire AXLE Sports team for preparing a competitive car. The victory marked a significant turnaround for Anton, the 2025 Formula 4 Southeast Asia rookie champion, following a difficult opening round at the Formula Trophy Bahrain event. Anton also acknowledged the support of his early sponsors, including Motul Infiniteserv, Alpinestars, Yokohama, Timemaster Watches and Blue Coffee Distributor, which helped pave his way into Formula 4 racing. With the championship in sight, Anton is expected to carry the Philippine flag into the season-ending round as he seeks to secure another major milestone in his international racing career. HARLEY PALANGCHAO
